Not surprising. Plattdeutsch descends from Old Saxon, which along with Old Frisian and Old English made up a s.c. Ingveonic group.

Ja, bandy är mycket bättre! 🏑💪🏼

At the top of the image is the Livonian word "Tālsa". Below it are its Latvian translation "Talsi" and its English translation "Talsi". In the middle of the image is an example sentence using the word in Livonian: Tālsa um eitõd īdõks mäg pǟlõ. Below the Livonian sentence on the left is its Latvian translation: Talsi ir celti uz deviņiem pakalniem. Below the Livonian sentence on the right is its English translation: Talsi is built on nine hills. On the bottom right is the hashtag: #līvõkēļ

The blame for Navajoland not being given statehood is largely placed on the states of Colorado and Utah who refused to entertain the possibility of ceding land, but I can't help but think the REAL reason would be because it would permanently create two native senators and a native representative.

A neat part of history that they don't teach you: there was a push in the late 1970s to admit the Navajo Nation as the 51st state. The population of Navajoland would've been 150k at the time and now 174k, much smaller than Wyoming, and the capital would've been Window Rock. Interesting read.

YouTube recommended Nenets (Tundra?) tonight. First time hearing this language fluently spoken. I could identify her /hal-/ for ‘fish’ — the one Uralic cognate set I know of besides pronouns. :)

- Hopi (Hopílavayi): Yupkoyvi
'place beyond the horizon'
- Acoma Pueblo (Keres Acoma): W’aasrba shak’a
'place of greasewood'
- Navajo (Diné): Tsébiyaanii’ áhá the large rock, Threatening Rock, that once supported Pueblo Bonito, meaning 'rock that braces and supports' or 'leaning rock gap'

White people should be required to learn an indigenous language to stay in the U.S., like Navajo.

Not unexpected. When it finally happens I just hope they'll release the code to the open.

Is its (HPUX's) base so outdated?

Time once again to rep my favorite place for giving: anelder.org - they supply food, firewood and supplies for traditional crafting to Navajo Elders. If you have the cash, please give these folks a hand.

As I'm planning next years field season, I wonder if anyone on here would like to run a small island project on Skúvoy with me. I will be catching and samling great skuas, but there will be good opportunities to investigate other aspects of seabird island ecology 🌍🧪 #seabirds

OK, that's what is, I didn't know that. There's a popular saying about a castle moat with crocodiles as a very secure protective measure, that was the first thing that came to my mind 🏰🐊😁

The crocodile must be defending the castle

Monument Valley Navajo Tribal Park

An aerial drone photograph captures a massive circular gown constructed from translucent petrified wood bark, spread across ancient Navajo sandstone formations in the American Southwest. The dress features concentric rings dyed with natural pigments that mirror both the growth rings of ancient trees and the geological strata of the surrounding red rock mesas, creating a stunning mandala pattern visible from above. At the center, a model sits in meditative pose wearing turquoise and silver cast-bone jewelry, seamlessly blending into the landscape as part of a living Land Art installation. The harsh midday desert sun casts minimal shadows and saturates the natural colors, emphasizing the dress's perfect circular geometry and intricate wood grain patterns against the expansive backdrop of carved sandstone and distant mesas.
